We went on to some blogs and asked some people a couple questions and what their thoughts about it were.THIS IS FROM THE BLOG ANSWER BAG!!

This is just a theory by some guy named Kevin.

"Cavemen started banging things around until they realized that they were able to manipulate objects to make sounds that were pleasing to them, and hence the evolution of music has proceeded from the stone age right up to modern times."

This is a thought by a boy named Perry.

"Jubal, son of Lamech and Adah; a descendant of Cain is mentioned as 'founder of all those who handle the harp and the pipe,' he probably lived in what is modern day Iraq, what was once Mesopotamia. Jubal may have invented both stringed and wind instruments, or perhaps he ‘founded’ a profession, which gave considerable impetus to the progress of music."

This is what Angelica thinks."Music came from the muslims."

This is from someone anonomous"well in the church many many many yrs. ago the monks did what was called a Gregorian chant. Though they could not speak they could participate in Gregorian chants and they would. It was very monosyllabic and it was music. that is where music began. I mean the type with actual notes etc. after that the slaves used to sing in the cotton fields all the spiritual hums to get them through their day. actually before either one of those things in biblical times the people used to sing songs of praise to the lord and they are now in the bible as Psalms."



Roman philosopher and statesman Boethius was the first person to associate music with the alphabet. He used the first fifteen letters of the Roman alphabet to indicate notes that were in use at the end of the Roman period. This system evolved over time, with Benedictine monk Gludo d' Arezzo adding the staff at the end of the 12th Century, placing the letters on certain lines to indicate their pitch.
In the 15th Century, time signatures were added, and the notes evolved into a rounded shape. The 5-line staff with auxiliary lines became standard in the 16th Century, and expression signs and Italian phrases indicating tempo and dynamics were added in the 17th Century.
Ludwig van Beethoven was one of the first composers to use metronome markings on his scores to indicate tempo, having been acquainted with Johann Nepomuk Maelzel, who perfected the metronome around 1815.
